Time skip: approximately an year and a half later

Aarav's POV

My life is mundane now. Even though my bestie is busy with his married life, he meets me atleast once in a week. One wonderful thing that happened was Navya Akhilan.

No no Aki didn't do second marriage n all, she's his six months old cute lil babygirl. They both are really happy since Navya came into their life.

I sometimes feel hollow inside, I didn't share my pain with anyone. It's void without love. Yeah, I broke up with Mithila in just a month. I wasn't able to see her as my love, everytime I looked into her eyes, Kuttu's image flashed.

I told about my problem to Mithila. I expected her to cry and fight and accuse me but she was different. She understood my mind and left without saying," I don't think you'll be happy with me. Your happiness is more important than you being with me". She's really an angel.

As of Kuttu, I saw her 2 times. Once, in the mall with a group of people who I assumed to be her colleagues, I expected her to come and talk to me but she looked at me once and continued speaking with her colleagues.

Again, I met her when Navya baby was born. That time too, she didn't even make an effort to speak to me. Me avoiding her has a reason but I don't know why she's avoiding me. If it was like earlier, she would've talked like a broken tape recorder but everything has changed now.

My bestie is busy with his life, my parents are upset that I'm not getting married yet, my love is off the limits. My life sucks doesn't it 😒

I deleted all photos of her, deleted her contact and all memories of her but the song on the radio reminds me of her. I really don't know how to throw her out of my mind. She has spoiler me for other girls too. Why Kuttu why?

Agalya's POV

I'm happy for the world. My parents, Aki and Yazhu everyone thinks that I'm happy but no one knows I'm pretending it.

Yeah, I hangout with my colleagues, play with Navya, go to restaurants etc but inside I'm not happy. Only my pillows knew how much I missed him.

I was depressed at nights and playful and funny and talkative all through the day. Life is boring I should say.

I'm thanking all gods that my parents didn't bring marriage yet. I'm not able to decide my future yet, I don't think I'll be happy without him but at the same time I can't interfere in his life, ask him to break up with his girlfriend and marry me.

I don't think it works that way, for a successful marriage we both should love eachother in the first place. I'm not even a little angry on him cause it's not his fault not loving me right.

I was thinking about my ill fate while I heard a knock on the door. I opened it to see Yazhu and my cute niece Navya. I should admit it, Navya is a real stress buster. I forget all my worries when I see that little fingers of her.

Yazhu was the only one who knew about the proposal *correction* proposal attempt. I told her that I lost interest on him after going there and stuff. She didn't believe me fully but she didn't question further either.

I asked," hey why did you travel with Navya? If you wanted, I would've come"

"No probs di, I was too bored there so only I came" she said sighing. "Ok sit down" I told and got Navya from her hands. She hugged my neck as soon as I took her.

"Oi kutti! (A word of endearment which usually means short or tiny ps.I hate it when people call me that) why didn't you meet your chithi (aunt) for 1 week?" I sweetly scolded her. Yazhu was laughing seeing both of us.

"Agu do you have any books to read in freetime? I'm really bored nowadays as your dear brother is busy with hospital. I don't even know whether he married me or the stethoscope" she whined like a child.

"You were the one who wanted to marry him right *chuckles* few old books are there on the loft" I told. "Ok, I'll take" she told and opened the loft and a lot of dust came from it.

"Hey it's too dusty here, take Navya to the living room" she said and I went to the living room. I started playing with Navya and the time passed swiftly.

It was soon night, Aki picked Yazhu and Navya and I retired to my depression den. I don't cry everyday n all but it's really frequent.

I started watching a movie to not get depressed but that movie itself made me cry. A triangular love story.

I closed the laptop with a loud tap and lied down on the bed sobbing. It's not anything new, I'll cry for few minutes and drift into sleep.

I heard a knock on the door and I panicked. Did something happen to dad? I wiped my tears and ran to the door.

I opened the door and my dad was standing there holding a post cover in his hand. I said," Come in appa" and he sat on my bed.

I put my head on his lap and asked," what happened appa? Why are you here at his time?".

He combed my hair with his rough fingers and told," I-I wanted to speak with you ma. It has been so long since we had a small chat, I don't know if others noticed it but I can clearly notice that it's not my daughter. Is something bothering you Kanna?". He has understood me clearly, I don't want to hurt him by saying my story so I zipped my mouth about Bobby.

"Nothing pa, you can see me right I go out with colleagues, go for movies, play with Navya. I-I am happy Appa" I told and he nodded.

"Kanna you know that I'm getting older and my health is not cooperating, I have a wish da" he said and paused. Oh god please it shouldn't be what I'm thinking.

"I want to see you get married and being happy with a family of your own" he said. I didn't know what to say so I stayed silent.

There was a long silent pause. He asked," will you make my wish come true Kanna?" With hope dancing in his eyes.

And I said....
